​Security of Invested Funds

RetiredearlyFX.com have designed an investment service that has thesecurity of invested funds as its core principal. RFX decided that the best way to do this was to team up with a fully regulated and authorised entity that would be responsible for segregating investor funds and ensuring they are kept in safe, separate accounts. As a result RetiredearlyFX does not accept, hold or deal with any client funds. To invest clients must open an investment account with our chosen supplier FXTM and deposit money in an FXTM investment account. RetiredearlyFX will never have access to client money nor will client money be mixed with the business accounts of FXTM. Money is held in separate segregated accounts that only the investor can access. RetiredearlyFX and FXTM are completely separate companies and have no links other than supplier / customer.

So What is FXTM Invest ?

FXTM Invest is the copy trading arm of FXTM. FXTM is a retail forex broker that began trading in 2011, it was founded by the same Russian entrepreneur who started the successful Alpari finanacial brand. Both Alpari and FXTM have proven to be robust companies, well managed and regulated providing very strong security for their customers.

FXTM is regulated in 4 juristrictions making them one of the most regulated FX companies around, its regulation details are as follows.

How does it work?

FXTM invest is an innovative example of social trading, it allows for two types of people to come together for mutual monetary gain. People can join as an investor or as a strategy manager, we are strategy managers.

An investor can deposit money in an FXTM Investor account and choose a strategy manager, FXTM will then mirror the performance of the strategy managers account on the money deposited by the investor. So if the strategy managers account goes up 20% so does the investor account. Investors do not perform any trading, once they have chosen a strategy manager and invested the money they can leave the investment for whatever period of time you choose, the trading will happen automatically.Investors can see the performance of their account in real time and can stop investing or withdraw their money at any time without notice.

The strategy manager receives a % of the profit he makes for investors, this is done on a high watermark basis. There are no other fees or costs involved, we charge 20% of profit which is quite low for FXTM most people require a higher percentage.
